Raphael's personality in Nick's version

*CyberCubed* · 04-15-2011, 10:51 PM

It seems from people who attended the Nick event that Raph is more like his Mirage/Movies/2k3 counterparts in this series, but I recall someone saying Raph is also more sarcastic in this version as well, which reminds me of old toon Raph.

What can we expect from Raphael in this series?

You kinda just answered your own question.

I was thinking something similar to post-beatdown Raphael in the first TMNT movie.

Definitely, Raph needs to have his brooding side I mean that's what set him aside from his brothers AND opened up for some sweeeeeeeeeet solo stories. Yet Ideally (to keep us all happy

) it would be awesome if Raph was a amalgam (that will be my word for the day) of all previous personalities. He could bounce jokes and witty one liners with Mikey but also love to fight and go all berserker......'Wolverine' style during a fight

snikity snikt.

As long as he's recognizably Raph, I'll be happy.

*BubblyShell22* · 04-16-2011, 07:05 AM

I really don't care what his personality is as long as he stays true to the character.

**Venom** · 04-16-2011, 11:53 AM

^ In order for him to remain true to his character he would need to include those traits mentioned.

*BubblyShell22* · 04-17-2011, 07:34 AM

Yeah, I know that.

ryukenden · 04-19-2011, 09:21 PM

He can still be the anti-hero and be funny at the same time.

So make him a Teenage Mutant Ninja Deadpool?

Dammit, I wanted to snark but instead I smiled. Good on you, Jester!

I just hope they don't over do their personalities like 2k3 did.

Leo - leader etc but not too boring, he doesn't have to be focused all the time.
Mikey- fun, goofball but not an idiot or hardcore geek.
Donny - show that he can indeed fight, but he's usually portrayed very well in most incarnations
Raph - angry/strong one but not up to 11 like 2k3 god, make him more sarcastic like the OT instead of so angry.

So...Archie Raph? He was sarcastic for that (like the OT series), but was a bit of a pessimist too, which was something he obviously didn't learn his lesson from. You know, lightening up.

That aside, a nice balance would work for me. What made me love OT Raph was because of his one-liners and sarcasm.

Volvagia · 04-21-2011, 07:50 AM

A mix of all, make him a bit more sarcastic and tone down his anger.

cryan · 04-21-2011, 04:30 PM

Yeah,the snarkyness that he showed I always liked.Forgive me if I said this before but he is the Han Solo of the group.

ryukenden · 04-21-2011, 05:21 PM

Raph being sarcastic and having one-liners is fine but I certainly don't want him to be a yes-man to Leo.

*Jephael* · 04-21-2011, 06:39 PM

I like Raphael when he's witty and level-headed.

LEO: "Turtles fight with honor!"
RAPH: "Call me a sentimental fool, but I'm a sucker for that battle cry."

Fugitoid Jones · 05-09-2011, 09:28 PM

I personally would like to see this Raph be a bit more like the first movie Raph, he's got a bad temper, but also has a sarcastic wit.

The only other comparison I can think of to give an example of how I'd like to see Raph is maybe Guy Gardner.
